chapter four —
isn't she pretty?





the moment she stood up, jahee caught jeonghoons attention who was typing. "are you leaving now?" jeonghoon inquires as he sees her gather the documents that was spread out on her desk and set it away. before getting her purse out from under her desk and going to stand up.

jahee nodded and laughed as she tucked her hair behind her ear. "yeah, i don't have much to do right now," she said. while still seated, seungho gave her a passing glance as she proceeded to leave through the door. seungho packed his belongings and followed her as fast and gracefully as he could, drawing jeonghoon's curious gaze.

seungho left through the doors, clearing his throat as he walked behind her. he called her name, "jahee," while holding onto her elbow, causing her to turn her heel and twitch her brows in his direction. "yes?" she disputed while firmly holding on to her bag. seungho quickly let grip of her arm as he swallowed nervously wondering why he was feeling so tense— he's done it before. "do you.. do you wanna eat dinner toegther?"

seungho studied jahees expression steadily changed from confusion to a grin, and she nodded, thus managed to calm his nerves and prompting him to smile. she considered it cute— that the serious guy from work was hesitant to ask her out to dinner. jahee and seungho following each other as they made their way to his nearby gray honda civic. eventually once they were both in the car, it was awkwardly quiet as they sat there waiting for one of them to communicate before they did. "so, um, do you have anyplace to you want to eat at?" while he turned on the automobile, seungho asked jahee gazing into her eyes. "there is a good restaurant nearby, only a few streets away," said jahee as she continued to hold onto her purse, which was resting on her lap— trying to not appear nervous herself.

seungho hums as he starts driving away from the police station, "you give me the directions because you don't seem to remember the name of the restaurant" seungho joked with her leading her to giggle. he quietly grinned as he continued to look at the road hearing her soft laughter at his teasing. jahee informed seungho , "right, it's yongsuns kitchen.. it's a smaller family-owned restaurant" "ahh, i know it!"

"really?" jahee felt surprised by seungho response. "yeah.. actually i use to go there frequently with— when i was in highschool," seungho stammered. she says, "me too!" with a sense of satisfaction that they already shared something in common. he chuckles lightly and increases the volume of the music just a bit so that there is some background noise in the car. and there played a song you use to like— why was there too many signs that reminded him of you? seungho wondered to himself. "you like this song?"seungho inquired after noticing jahee tapping her fingers in tune with the music and appearing to enjoy the song. the song that is currently playing on the radio was KIM GUNMOS BETTER GOOBYE.
